Right when it seemed things could not get worse for LeBron James, they apparently did. The Miami Heat star is currently struggling and his team is falling apart at the worst time of the season, the NBA Finals. Much of the blame has fallen upon James and then there are rumors of his girlfriend being unfaithful.

Rashard Lewis played for the Orlando Magic when they stopped the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2009. LeBron James was not only the star of the Cavaliers, but he was also the season MVP. Lewis' game-winning three pointer of game one stopped Cleveland from ever having an advantage in that series.

Fast forward two years later and LeBron James has been outcast from his hometown for leaving Cleveland. Not only is he unwelcome at his own home, much of his credit on the basketball court has been given to Dwyane Wade. Through it all, he remained strong and the Heat made it all the way to the NBA Finals and he has to hear all about this.

Earlier today, Rashard Lewis released a statement denying he even knows Savannah Brinson, the longtime girlfriend of LeBron James. Lewis called Brinson to see if she was doing alright and offered an apology to his rival, James. While the two are on-court rivals, Rashard Lewis does not want to have any issues with him off the court. By the looks of things, the situation will quickly blow over and now LeBron James can focus on getting the Miami Heat back on track to win their next two home games.
